EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the thrilling world of horse racing in 1889. The image showcases the renowned Double Trotting Team, Sir Mohawk and Nellie Sontag, who were not only exceptional racehorses but also full brother and sister. Engraved by the talented John Cameron for Currier & Ives, this lithograph perfectly captures the intensity and excitement of a late 19th-century race. The horses are seen harnessed together, their muscles taut with anticipation as they await the starting signal on a sunny day at an unidentified race course in Northeast America. The carriage behind them stands ready to carry its eager passengers along for the exhilarating ride. The exterior of the track is filled with spectators eagerly anticipating this high-stakes competition. Horse racing was not just a sport; it was a spectacle that brought people from all walks of life together to witness these magnificent creatures showcase their speed and agility. This particular image immortalizes two extraordinary equine athletes who captivated audiences with their remarkable talent. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we can almost hear the thundering hooves pounding against the track as Sir Mohawk and Nellie Sontag raced towards victory. It serves as a timeless reminder of our enduring fascination with horse racing and its ability to unite us in awe-inspiring moments like these.
